Journey to home Maanjeet and Ishaan question one another about their life. Arriving at Sharma house Angad dash inside shouting his Auntie's name loudly. Suhana came out taking Angad in her arms. She kissed him everywhere on his face. Angad made every type of expression than wipe his auntie's tear. Impatiently Angad kept on asking them about his Angel. Suhana told him that his Angel is playing outside with her sister. Angad dash toward the garden leaving the elders talking.
Elders kept on chatting while in the garden Angad saw Garima pushing his Angel. He got extremely angry and push Garima away from his Angel. Crying Kripa look at Angad who kept on blowing on her wound. She smiled forgetting her pain. She tried getting up, but instantly fell on the ground crying again in pain. Angad forget everything and lift his Angel up. Crying Kripa look deeply into brownish-chocolaty eyes and drown herself in them. Angad carried her inside drifting everyone's attention. Angad told them what happen in the garden. Ishaan got angry and shouted for Garima. Garima came inside with red eyes. She glare at Angad for destroying her dress. Before she could complain to her Nani Ishaan slap her. Garima got more angry and broke expensive vase on the ground making Kripa scared. She hugged her mother tightly. Garima felt hurt when her mother ignore her and took care of Kripa's wound. Nobody notice that Garima step on the shatter glass hurting herself. She march up to her room slamming the door.
That incident made Maanjeet realize his mistake and saw pain reflecting in Angad's eyes. He understood his Son and decide to break the alliance between Garima and Angad on that day. He asked Ishaan if they could speak alone. Ishaan understood everything and nod his head. He took Maanjeet with him inside his study room. They discuss among themselves and decide instantly to get Angad married to Kripa because of Garima. Ishaan knew his daughter Garima and her greed in having everything that belong to Kripa.
Later in the evening, Ishaan explain everything to his wife Suhana. Suhana felt happy and agreed with her husband. She got Kripa ready in simple nice red outfit. Kripa kept on questioning her mother while she wore her clothes. Suhana just smile at Kripa and answer her question. Meanwhile Maanjeet explain to Angad about certain prayer kept inside the puja room. Angad silently listen to his Dad and understood its important without anymore question he got dress.
Few minute later Garima could hear many laughter echoing outside her room. She look outside her window and saw her mother sitting with Kripa in her lap and that guy who pushed her sitting beside them. She saw the guy taking pinch of red powder and rubbed on Kripa's forehead. She got confuse and close the window in anger. She broke many items in her room.
Suhana heard sound shattering items. She place Kripa on the chair and went inside her house into Garima's room. She saw entire place fill with broken item.
